Conferences and Meetings on Microscopy

Biophysics Austria

13. European Biophysics Conference is is organized by Biophysics Austria in Vienna. It is a part of conference series that is chaired by the European Biophysical Societies Association (EBSA, http://ebsa.org/portal/). The last EBSA conference was in Madrid 2019. Commonly, the European meeting brings together more than 1000 biophysicists from all over the world. We are prepared to organize a hybrid meeting that will allow everyone to attend regardless of the COVID19 pandemic situation. The scientific focus of the upcoming conference will be classical biophysics ‐ including several sessions on membrane transporters and channels, virus‐membrane interactions, protein synthesis and folding, protein transport, single molecule biophysics, lipid‐protein interactions, molecular biophysics, bioenergetics, etc.

Microscopy, Histopathology and Analytics provides a forum for presenting the latest research in tissue microscopy, automated analysis and machine-learning approaches, as well as laboratory-based analytics and fluidics, reagents and labels, along with challenges in translating such developments into the clinic. Topics central to this meeting are novel forms of microscopies, computational modeling and algorithms, novel contrast agents, clinical analytics and translation to applications. Example applications areas are clinical diagnostics, surgical and non-surgical therapy guidance, prognostic procedures, high throughput drug screening and biomarker evaluation.

Frontiers of Aberration-corrected Electron Microscopy is a series of biennial conferences focusing on fundamental electron optics and it's applications to advanced transmission electron microscopy techniques being applied to the study of solid state research phenomena and the life sciences. The conference series primarily arose to satisfy the requirements of the electron microscopy community working on solid state problems at the atomic scale, which grew explosively in the early 2000's with the introduction of aberration corrector units in commercial instruments and has expanded since to researchers working with analytical periphery, at low acceleration voltages or making use of various in-situ techniques.

National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC)

The 15th International Conference on X-ray Microscopy (XRM) 2020 will be hosted by the National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC) in Hsinchu in 19 - 24, June 2022. A 6-day program will feature the invited and contributed oral presentations in plenary and parallel sessions, poster and exhibition sessions, and a tour to the recently opened 3-GeV facility, Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) at NSRRC.

The goal of this long program proposal is to bring together senior and junior applied mathematicians, physicists, chemists, materials scientists, engineers and biologists to discuss and debate on the current status and future perspectives of modern microscopy using computation, mathematics and modeling. Cryo-EM has revolutionized biology and life science (including very recently solving the 3D atomic structure of COVID-19, which has been greatly facilitating the development of the vaccines) and aberration-corrected electron optics and high brightness X-ray sources have transformed physical science imaging. The next steps in these fields will advance by orders of magnitude the temporal resolution and energy resolution, while maintaining atomic spatial resolution, in a variety of sample environments from near zero Kelvin in vacuum to temperatures of a thousand degrees in a highly corrosive atmosphere. These advances will transform research in macromolecules, materials, energy technologie

Applied Mathematics (in general),    Scientific Computing

Developing multi-dimensional electron microscopy would have transformative impact in physics, chemistry, materials science, nanoscience and other fields. Advancing the field requires integration of state-of-the-art atomic electron tomography, ptychography, 4D scanning transmission electron microscopy and spectroscopic techniques as well as powerful computational algorithms and mathematical modeling. This workshop will provide the opportunity to present and exchange ideas, share data, and introduce new tools and develop new imaging paradigms needed in a variety of fields.

Applied Mathematics (in general),    Scientific Computing

The implementation of advanced algorithms with user-friendly software packages has made the cryo-EM method straightforward in practice. Despite these exciting advances, major challenges still remain, such as higher throughput, mapping continuous deformations, reconstruction of small macromolecules, and in sample preparation. For pleomorphic structures, cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) is the method of choice, but it is typically limited to lower resolution compared to cryo-EM, and it remains a daunting challenge to determine macromolecular structures in situ at high resolution. Overcoming these major challenges in cryo-EM and cryo-ET requires significant advances in sample preparation, hardware development and computational algorithms. The goal of this workshop is to bring together leading experts in cryo-EM, biologists, applied mathematicians and physicists to discuss and debate the current challenges and future perspectives of this very exciting cross-disciplinary field.
